Girl Scouts Exploring Louisiana Purchase State Park
What to know
Girl Scouts are invited to take action and get outdoors to explore Louisiana Purchase State Park on their own special day. Join us as we hike on an elevated boardwalk into a swamp to discover plants and animals adapted to this unique environment that is protected as an Arkansas State Park. Scouts will be ready to journey to other state parks as we will learn how to prepare for a hike. In fact, Brownies will be able to earn a Hiker Badge. This event is open to all ages of Girl Scouts and you will get the chance to use equipment like the 1815 surveyors used carving out lands for settlement in Arkansas. Preregistration is required by October 18th and there is a modest fee. Please contact the park at (870) 572-2352 for more information on this event or how to register.
